À propos de la thèse
The thesis examines life stories and narrative identity in personality disorders, where identity disturbance is defining. It asks how they figure in treatment and recovery.
One part uses life stories for treatment allocation and to track psychotherapeutic change. A checklist was made to assess them and support decisions between supportive and insight-oriented treatment. After intensive psychotherapy, patients became more autonomous and reported more positive relationships.
Another part reviews and develops a narrative intervention for personal recovery. The review found benefits for trauma-related, depressive and anxiety symptoms, but rare use in personality disorders. Participatory research produced An Empowering Story, where groups reconstruct life stories into a coherent, empowering narrative. Initial evaluations indicated improvements in personal recovery and personality pathology.
